Update

Sorry for the long wait before another update and it only being a small one but I have
been busy.

I see you're object counter is dangerously close to the 3000 border, you should always aim for the 3000 border and not the 3500. Other then that, all i can say, awesome update. I like the idea of the bridge trough the middle. But will it be passable by infantry and the like? I hope so because that will give players some interresting strategy's. And dont worry about the lag of updates, because i dont care about quantity, i care more about quality. And thats exactly what you're giving us

Keep it up!

Looking pretty decent so far. Albeit, imo it seems a bit spaced for a City.
Cities are usually quite cramped as I've been lead to believe.

There are 2 problems with making it more cramped

1. The object count will be a lot higher
2. There is not much room to send units through

I suppose, plus it'd just be more work. xD

And thats something you hate, dont you?

Duuuuuuuuuuuuh.
Especially work for nothing, that's just, pointless. =/

Anyways, less talk about work, more work on the map. =D

Got any progress word showing mate, im really anxious to see this map completed

Update

As you can see the object count is getting high but unless you have
some ideas for the rest of the space where there was going to be city
then I guess I will just have to go over the limit.

btw crazykenny I made it so you can send units over the bridge. I had
originally stopped it but you asked so I made it so.

Awesome

But that object count....damn...

I have just hit the 3000 object count and I keep getting the message coming
up it is really annoying me so is the anyway to stop it from coming up or do I
have to click ok every time I place an object.

You'll want to subtract some objects mate. I know you want to have lots of detail, but because of the way EA set the game and the mapping system up, you really shouldn't go above 3k objects. The game basically grinds to a halt and the map becomes unplayable.

Damn EA, well what kind of filler can we put in, a river or lake?

I ended up filling it with city. At the moment the object count is at 3382.

There is a couple more thing to fix and then I will put it up for testing.

Have you attempted thinning out the trees a little more within the city? even 3 trees to a small grassy are can look as effective as seven.

EDIT: It won't do too much, but it will help to reduce the object count.

Try to boost that object count back under the 3000...

Update

I have uploaded the map and its ready for testing.

Did you manage to get the objects under 3000? cuz my PC wil probably explode in my face if i't's still above that

um sorry your comp will explode in your face

Damn shame :(, I'll download the final version anyway, after I've checked my insurance covers exploding computer XD.

Well its not that bad. I didn’t have any lagging and the AI plays really well.

I'll give it a try then...now where did I put that hockeymaks...

EDIT: *Downloaded* *preying that the pc won't explode in face*

I'm gonna give it a run (but I'm sure mine will lag, damn 2002 computers ).

Well I run a rather high end computer but I tried it and there was no lag.

Good news, my pc didn't explode in my face .

BTW, I liked that fire department, is it ok if I use that idea in the future?
